No canning date. Bummer, but the neat label + epic name is making me not care about the fact that canning date is absent. Plus, c'mon, a pale ale named Moist? I'm intrigued. Let's see how much moisture she provides.
L: Pours a hazy straw yellow in color. Not murky by any means, but the haze is evident. From a simple pour (which could be due to the chimney glass) about 3 fingers of a loosely bubbled head formed rapidly with only half of the contents poured out. After it settled (which was fairly quick), I dumped the rest of the goods in the glass. As I drink the beer, spotty lacing coats the glass but it isn't in abundance.
S: First thing I notice is a flaked oats presence. It lends a sweet, well oaty aroma. Next I get melon with some lemon, mango, and earl grey tea florally aromas.
T: Very enjoyable. Flaked oats flavor is present throughout the flavor train, providing a solid foundation. Fruit presence is melon with a touch of citrus. Aftertaste is melony with lingering flavors of lemon and oats. Really pleasant.
F: Light in body and weight. Moderate levels of carbonation, providing slight fizz element on the tongue. Sticky residual coating in the palate.
O: I am a huge fan of pale ales. At 5.5 abv, this is great and could definitely be a daily drink. It isn't bursting with flavor, and if you're looking for that silky creamy feel for a NEIPA APA, this isn't the beer. It's simple and enjoyable, lending ample flavor for something 5.5abv. I am very much enjoying it, very glad to have tried, and would drink again. Cheers!

Look: Hazy (though not very hazy) golden yellow body, 1.5 fingers of head on a semi-aggressive pour, average head retention, below average lacing.
Smell: Very tropical and floral up front. This beer is brewed with Mosaic and Citra hops, and Mosaic feel dominant.
Taste: Notes reminiscent of mango, papaya, and melon in the front, but citrusy bits are present as well.
Feel: Light-bodied, highly carbonated, crushable.
Overall: A solid representation of modern over-hopped hazy pale ale. Feel like I could kill 20 of these on a hot day. I'm glad that New Glory is expanding this series across all of the hoppy styles.

From the 01/04/19 can release

Appearance - Pours hazy and golden yellow in color with a white, near two-finger width head. Good retention results in a thin, broken layer of suds and thickening up into a fair ring around the edges. Okay lacing, mostly consisting of broken lines and small spotting.

Smell - Fair aroma, but what's here brings a prominent melon character. That's really all I'm picking up.

Taste - Wow, pure melon bomb. Cantaloupe and honeydew melon dominate the flavor profile, and then just a touch of pineapple acidity in the finish. Not surprisingly a melon-forward aftertaste.

Mouthfeel - Light-to-medium in body with fair carbonation. Slick, easy drinker with a slightly velvety texture before a quenching finish.

Overall - Simple, but assertively flavored hazy pale. I don't recall the last time I've had a pale with this much punchy flavor. If you like melons, you'll love this one. Crazy considering the only hops used were Citra and Mosaic, neither known for expressing melon character.

Very good pale ale! Great piney, tropical nose with the character of a regular IPA...taste follows, but is a little thin as to be expected for a Pale Ale with low IBUs and 5.5% ABV. Great line up of Moist, Soaked, Dripping Wet, and Washed Out...keep up the good work New Glory!

Draught pour at Davis Beer Shoppe into a mug. Enjoyed the nose more than the taste, melon and floral, taste adds in citrus dimension that overwhelms the other aspects. Lots of astringency that lingers on the palate and tingles on the tongue.
